  1. Though visually the game is not exciting and navigation may hold you up a bit in the beginning, Fritz 8 Deluxe is everything a chess lover could want. You may never need to buy another chess program.
  2. The inclusion of a teaching system, Kasparov videos (which I could only access via media player), etc, is a nice touch, but the interface is awkward at best. This is probably the best chess engine out there right now.
  3. If you're into chess you're into Fritz Chess 8 but even if you're only a casual chess player or perhaps someone who hasn't played in a long time I think you may be pleasantly surprised at just how much there is to be gotten out of this program.
